Fowler's Mill Golf Course - Lake/River Course

This facility has three nine hole courses that are played in three eighteen hole combinations. The Lake/River Course is a typical Pete Dye design featuring several water hazards and an array of sand bunkers. The club hosted a U.S. Open qualifier in June, 1994. The other two courses, built on rolling terrain, are less challenging than the Pete Dye design. Each of the tees are rated for both men and ladies.

Course Reviews

Country Club of Billerica"New design poor, operation run poorly..."The scenery is nice and price is about average for a public course, but here's a few pet peaves:
- The course was redesigned a few years back to try to squeeze a few more stokes onto par by making it a par 69 from the original 66. The results were in my estimation, terrible. They basically redesignated two long par 4's into short par fives, combined to par 3's into a par 4, and added a 50 yard new par 3.
- The proshop is run extremely unprofessionally by retirees and kids under 16. I've also witnessed the "owner" hanging around and acting like a yahoo. Let's put it this way, not your typically golf links proprietor!
- The greens are colored during the summer with some bluish dye that gets all over your clothes, clubs, and ball. I suspect it covers up the burned out yellow spots on the greens.
- Finally, I've never seen greens like the ones at this place. They are kept long and are, by far, the slowest I've ever encountered. I've literally seen playing partners skull a wedge from 60 yards and it doesn't even roll off the green. Weird.---Golf Pro, Chelmsford, MA

Knob Hill Golf Course"One of the better ones around"Nicely maintained, well conditioned course. A little short from the whites, and perhaps a little long from the championship tees for the average golfer. Water comes into play on many holes, as does out of bounds. Greens are medium sized and fairly flat, but several have devilish breaks. Holes seven and eight can make or break your round, and when playing into the wind, the eighteenth is as tough a finishing hole as there is in the area. There has been talk about going private for several years, but it appears as if it will happen sometime in 2004, so if you have the opportunity to play, do it soon!!---GolfWhack, Central New Jersey

Danville Country Club"Delicious"I found this course and county club to be quite exciting. The main reason for this was because of one stand out individual. This man was Brad Irle, he introduced me to the realm that is Danville Country Club. Never before have I ever fathomed in any of my wildest, most exotic dreams to see such a plethora of food placed before me. After an enivorating and exciting round Brad and I stopped into the 19th whole to wet our whistles with a tasty tripple Gin and Tonic. I thank you Danville for all the memories I have, and the future visits that I look forward to.---Nick Kempen, Charleston Illinois
